The growing concern of the global community about the deterioration of the environmental situation, in particular, the intensive deforestation of equatorial and tropical forests, prompts the search for effective environmental policy tools in the context of globalization. One of these tools is forest certification, a reliable and systematic process that covers various aspects of modern society, where the forest sector plays a crucial role. The certification process assesses forestry practices, forest use and forest management in accordance with established international standards and requirements. The main goal of forest certification is to develop a rational strategy for sustainable forest management that offers potential opportunities for social, economic and environmental development through compliance with generally recognized international standards.
